• The introduction of the Industrial Revolution drastically changed peoples lives
  • Technology changes from doing things by hand (man power) to creating things by machines

1. Seed Drill ->deposits seeds in a row instead of throwing them onto the soil
   • plants and crops survived longer
   • even rows of crops
   • not wasting seed -> saves money

1. 
   Experiment With Soil
   • fertilizers develop -> animal feces
   • mixing the soils improved the crops
   • began to grow turnips to replenish the soil
     
2. Enclosure -> take small pieces of land and combine it into one mass land
   • cost efficient because they need less workers
   • higher yields
   • small famers could not compete with the enclosure fields
   • small farmers had to move to the city in search of work because they couldn't compete with the enclosure fields. That contributed to the onset of the Industrial Revolution

• Improvements in farming -> increased food production -> population increased
  
  

Energy Sources

1. Water (water wheel)
2. Coal
3. Wood (charcoal)
4. Steam

• Coal was the best because you could burn it and it could be used to create steam. Coal powered most of the factories.
• A more reliable form of iron was created. Iron was important because they could create bridges, machines, and railroad tracks.
